"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Should I openly say I'm Atheist ?

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Say you're a secular humanist, or a naturalist. Many people will know what you mean, and the ones that don't, well you can have an interesting time explaining it to them.Francisco d'Anconia said:
Other than that, don't ever do or not do something because you're worried how others will perceive you.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Your folks sent you to school up in Moorehead to try to keep you out of trouble didn't they? Well, we'll fix that.Indigo said:

My beliefs is one of thoose things that women find out when you peel the orange and you take a bite out of it,a nd you get to the middle where the seeds are. Very, very few people know what i believe in.
The ones who evenaully put two and two together always say teh same old ****.. "I never would have guessed someone like you were an athiest".. meaning I enver thought a normal mother****er could not believe in god... meaning if I would have told you before you actually MET me ou would have thought i was an oddball.
again, why defend yourself when there is no need? Do as you wish but behave like others.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

The ones that don't understand will probably think that you are one of those tree humpers.reset said:
So, if you want to, just say you're an atheist. You'll be doing the right thing, for you, which is all that matters.
Just keep in mind, that there are a lot of people who, if given the chance to get to know you, would completely change their opinions of what atheism means to them. You may not get an opportunity to meet these people, or show them how lame their thinking is... the very people who's opinion you could probably change.
You just have to decide, if it's more important to define yourself by your lack of belief, or if you want to "fit in" and try to change the system from the inside.
If it were me, I'd leave the religion (or lack of thereof) out of it all together. Because it doesn't matter. Just like whether you're a conservative or liberal, in the grand scheme of things, really doesn't matter when it comes to meeting people and making friends. That's all surface stuff. So treat it like a surface issue... if you want to get caught up in labels, good or bad, then go for it.

Ya don't want to meet some chick off of there and get a connection going with her only to find out that she's a hardcore Christian who will only keep dating you if you are one too.
Not all of them are like that of course but you might as well shop for someone thats more or less got the same outlook on life at least in this really important way as I've heard plenty of horror stories about atheist guys getting involved with Christian chicks and getting married and then there's a big power struggle over whether the kids are going to be raised Christian or Atheist.
Avoid that mess and all other related ones is my advice.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
